AAAAA!!! Battle Auras!

*hides under a rock*



Ranma strolled through the gates of Furikan High the following morning, backpack over his left shoulder. As usual, Hibiki and Kuno were pacing back and forth, watching each other and the gate equally. Ranma stopped just inside the gates, smirking at the HRD.

"She's not coming," He said casually, letting his backpack slide to the ground. The wanna be swains froze in mid-step and turned slowly to face him.

"What did you say?" Hibiki growled. Kuno settled for just growling.

"She's not coming," Ranma repeated. Kuno stepped forward, bokken swinging from over his shoulder to point at Ranma's chest.

"And how would you, a lowly 3-C student, know my goddess's whereabouts?" Kuno challenged.

"Oy! She's not YOUR goddess!" Hibiki grumbled, sparing Kuno a two second glare before turning the glare on Ranma.

"I was with her last night," Ranma said, smirking knowingly. He watched as twin gouts of steam erupted from Hibiki's ears and Kuno's aura grew to thunderous proportions. Ranma wondered briefly just where their minds had gone, then let his smirk grow and moved to a defensive stance.

"You insolent fiend! How dare you impinge the beauteous Tendo Akane's honor with such insinuations? State your name so I, Kuno Takewaki, leader of Blue Thunder, may smite you properly."

"Saotome Ranma of the Saotome School of Anything Goes Martial Arts."

"You cad! Xian Pu chases you around constantly, but that's not enough for you?!" Hibiki cried. Kuno's aura doubled in strength and the HRD shifted into attack positions. Ranma shook his head.

"I never asked for Xian Pu's attention. Believe me, you can have her! It would save me a lot of grief."

"Silence! I will hear no more of your foul words. Prepare to die!" Kuno shouted, raising his bokken. Hibiki threw a bandana while Kuno charged. Ranma ducked and rolled forward and to his right, cleaning dodging the bokken. He came up from the roll to bury his fist deep in Hibiki's gut. The Lost Boy leader crumpled around the punch, only to be grabbed by the collar and pulled over Ranma's head, blocking a side strike from Kuno with his own skull. Kuno skipped back a step, horrified at Ranma's actions. Ranma stood, tossing Hibiki aside carelessly, and turned to face Kuno. Hibiki landed on his side, desperately trying to blink the pretty pretty stars back to the Cosmos where they belonged.

"I see now. So the 'Anything Goes' in your school's name includes dirty tricks. No matter. I shall defeat you honorably and inform the lovely Akane of your despicable nature," Kuno said, pointing the bokken at Ranma again.

"I'd like to see you try," Ranma retorted. Kuno charged again, aiming for a kidney strike. Ranma grabbed the bokken in his left hand, yanking hard. Kuno stumbled. Ranma yanked again, twisting as he did so he passed Kuno on the right. Kuno lost his grip on his bokken and was sent face first into the dirt by a well placed kick to his backside. Ranma flipped the bokken so he was holding the hilt and propped it on his shoulder, studying his opponents. They slowly clambered to their feet, glaring at him.

"Had enough?" Ranma asked them, meeting their eyes.

"Never! I am not defeated!" Kuno cried. Ranma shrugged and brought the bokken down to a kendo stance.

"YES YOU ARE!!" A new voice thundered. Hinoko-sensei pushed her way through the crowd of gaping students and planted herself between the combatants. "You are all done and in so much trouble. The faculty overlooked the Morning Fight because it was mostly Akane doing the fighting and no one was seriously hurt. We will NOT tolerate boys fighting amongst themselves at all. Am I perfectly clear?"

"Yes, sensei." Hibiki bowed and stepped back. Kuno was not so deterred. He dodged around Hinoko-sensei, throwing a right hook at Ranma's face. Ranma countered with the bokken, blocking the fist with the side of the blade. A distinct cracking sound echoed through the courtyard. Kuno froze, mouth open, then dropped to his knees, clutching the broken hand. Ranma flipped the cracked bokken again and handed it to Hikono-sensei hilt first. She took it, shaking her head.

"Detention for all three of you, starting today and lasting two weeks. Hibiki, Saotome, get to class."

"Yes, sensei!" The boys made their way through the crowd, Ranma pausing to grab his backpack. He glanced back to see medical staff swarming Kuno while Hikono-sensei barked orders into a cell phone. Ranma shrugged and headed to the front door. A random student flashed him a victory sign, which he returned.
